Almost all ejuices are to strong in taste

[Swaglife81]

So unfortunately almost all my vape shops locally are expensive or only have 60 ml bottles. Here is my issue.

Doing sampling I find some flavors I like. The vape shops have weaker tasting tanks to test on. I use a Smok Baby Beast which produces alot more taste from the e juices. Sounds like a good thing.

I've bought 7 bottles at different times. Avail brand, Naked 100, and a few local house blends. With the exception of 1 flavor every ejuice I've tried the flavor is way way to strong. I like the flavors testing them on the cheap testers at the vape shops. I'm using the Smok X2 coil which is great, I'm slowly at the point where I'm vaping at higher than my liking wattages to have less taste profile.

Is this a problem some people have. Everything is to strong in flavoring to some. I thought maybe I'm getting a slight spitback that Im not feeling but don't think that's the problem. Are these companies throwing huge amounts of flavoring in. They are 70 VG/30 PG with 6mg of nic and the 6mg nic is perfect for me. Satisfied after 15-20 puffs and just the right throat hit. I haven't gotten into diy as I'm interested at this point but I really don't want to waste these 6 or so bottles. I guess I should dilute with some pre mixed vg/pg with equal amount nic.

I really need to hit up companies that put in like half the amount of flavoring as Avail, Naked and some others do if I can.

Let me know your opinions

What's the problem with vape shops having only 60ml bottles? They are cheaper by the ml's than the 30ml, you save money.

You could just dilute with VG and/or PG your bottle to weaken the flavoring, no need to add nicotine, you'll go down to 5mg or 4mg, you won't see a difference really.

You can Definitely dilute your existing e-Liquids by adding Nicotine Base of the same Nicotine Level and PG to VG Ratio. But before you do, How Long have you had the e-Liquids?

Because the Flavor of an e-Liquid changes with time. And sometimes an e-Liquid that seems Too Strong when New tasted much Better after sitting for a Week. Or in the case of Tobacco Flavors, Longer.

Sometimes putting the e-Liquid in a Cool Dark Place for a couple of days with the Cap Off helps also.

Many people find commercial juice too strong. I DIY and my preferred all-day-juice is mixed at only 3 percent flavoring; most commercial juices are as high as 30%! I also dilute my commercial juice. Either mix your preferred nic level juice with the same nic level flavorless, or buy juice higher in nic level than you need and dilute with straight VG and/or PG.

Hi Swaglife
Everybody has their own likes and dislikes and I tend to like stronger than weaker flavors but I hear you, even I've pushed the watts up to decrease flavor strength at times.

I don't even want to tell you how much pre-made store bought juice I've got stored neatly in my freezer that I no longer like. I guess I liked it at some point but now I find myself pouring it down the sink to make room for nic to support my DIY. If I lived somewhere where there other vapers I'd more happily give it away as it is premium juice and it makes me feel bad to throw it out but what's the point in keeping it. I still have about 50 - 30ml bottles and handfuls of tester sized bottles.

Now I make small DIY batches of 10 ml each and if I don't like it at least I don't have to feel bad about dumping it and I no longer feel compelled to keep it, just in case.

Yeah, even if you're not going to do much in the way of DIY it's not a bad thing to have some PG, VG, and nicotine (in the highest concentration you feel comfortable working with) on hand so you can adjust juice you buy. A decent scale is also useful.

I'm going to need a bigger desk...
